It looks like you have discovered that genealogy is a journey, not a destination. It is a journey not only of discovering and knowing your family, but also of discovering and knowing yourself.

You may also discover MORE family through your blog: for instance, I had posted just one blog about my paternal family line (Packard in Massachusetts) when Bill West of West in New England (http://westinnewengland.blogspot.com/) made the connection and told me that he and I are cousins through that Packard line!

I look forward to following your blog and your progress in genealogy.

You’ve learned quite a bit. Welcome to the wonderful (and sometimes wacky) world of genealogy blogging.
